OCTYL ACETATE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Octyl acetate is an ester with the chemical formula C10H20O2, commonly used as a solvent and in the production of flavors and fragrances. It has a pleasant, fruity odor reminiscent of oranges, making it popular in perfumes, cosmetics, and flavorings. Octyl acetate is also utilized in coatings, inks, and cleaning products due to its solvent properties. It is naturally found in various fruits and is synthesized industrially for commercial use. While it is generally considered safe, it should be handled with care to avoid inhalation or prolonged skin contact, which can cause irritation.
